As the title suggests, this right here is a skin I made for the editors of HPL2. It's a minor edit of the original, because I don't wanna go all crazy on making a fancy design as it probably wouldn't look good anyway.
The idea of this skin is that it makes the UI clearer and smoother. One of the more noticeable details is the shine on the more defined buttons and the more compact font.
Oh, and the skin also edits the icons for the file browser, but NOT the icons for the edit modes. That will have to be a separate install, so I might add it to this thread later if I finish the one I'm playing around with now.
The icons that are included here are inspired (or mostly identical) to the Windows classic styled icons, however everything in this pack is hand drawn by me (well, virtually that is. Or should I say pixel-drawn?).
Oh, but what's a graphic pack without a preview? The left image is the original, the right is this pack.
PS: It might be useful to open both in their own tabs, so that you can compare them in full-size. Just middle click both.
You should try it and click around to really notice the difference though. It might be difficult through an image.
So yeah, that's mostly it. One thing that bothers me of how HPL2 renders images is how it doesn't do so pixel-accurate, as if it's scaled to like 110%, which makes it difficult to make an icon show up as advertized by the OS.
Anyways,
here's a download.
Aaand I almost forgot the install instructions.
Unzip the "default" folder from the download. Go to your Amnesia installation and open the
gui folder. Rename the current "default" folder into something like "default_original" and then place the downloaded and extracted "default" folder in its place. That's it!
Hope you enjoy! This is a completely unnecessary thing unless you're cringing at the current design of the HPL2 UI. ^^
